Popular Tourist Attractions

Paris Mountain State Park

The Paris Mountain has a rich History, even long before it was named after Richard Pearie who was the first White man to settle in the region. Richard was a British Native who was allowed to settle in the region by the Native Indians, after he married one of their girls, a woman known as Cherokee. The natives thus gave him several acres of land, and he made history by being the first ever white man to settle in the region on good terms with the natives. The Paris Mountain was thus named in his memory.

The Paris State Park dates back to the Great Depression, when the Civilian Conservation Corps constructed it. The park`s management still preserves evidence of the civilian corps heritage, through a stone and timber bathhouse which can be traced back to when the park was first established. The park is now a beehive of activity throughout the year, with bikers and hikers frequenting the park due to its marvelous trails. The park also serves as a camping ground, with a total of 18 campsites for your RV rental Greenville South Carolina.

Caesars Head State Park

Located in the Northern part of Greenville, this park offers a breathtaking view of the underlying landscape, due to its elevation from the ground. It was previously described in 1825 as a mass of granite rising high up, through which a rapid river flows. It was once owned by a State Senator, who could not resist buying the place, as he was quoted saying,” I had to take advantage of the area`s cool breezes and breathtaking views. “After the Senator`s death, the land was transferred to his daughter and after this it was owned by a huge list of people who mostly opened hotels and vacation homes, until 1984 when it was finally acquired by the department of Parks, Recreation and Tourism. The Park is therefore open to the public and is a popular spot for hiking, camping and picnicking. Fishing is also common at the Middle Saluda River and two other Creeks, which are located in the Park.
